Description
This extremely rare horse dance stick came out of an old Virginia estate collection. By family tradition, the Native American items were collected prior to WWII by a now deceased family member who traveled to the American West. This piece was displayed with a piece of Turtle Mountain Indian Pottery and I have extrapolated a possible Chippewa association. I do think it is Northern Plains. I just watched the Amazo Prime documentary HORSE TRIBE and saw similar dance sticks. I also must note that there were items from several Southwestern tribes in the collection as well - Navajo, Hopi, Kewa, and San Ildefonso. This dance stick is 16.5 inches long - with horse hair and leather - the leather base wrap has polychrome decoration. I think it dates to the early 20th century. Please study the photos - they are the main part of the description.If you know more about this item do not hesitate to share.
